Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

They all came to attend He Yushui's wedding.

But what everyone was surprised about was that there was no one from He Yushui's family. They hadn't told him about this before they came.

"Yushui, this isn't your home, is it? Aren't you getting married at home? Also, why don't I see your family? Where's Uncle He?"

He Yushui's bright eyes instantly dimmed, and she didn't know how to tell this to her friends.

Her father does not consider her a daughter, and her brother does not consider her a sister.

How can she express her grievances and to whom can she tell?

Seeing that He Yushui didn't answer, the crowd didn't press her again. Instead, they asked about the arrangements and scale of today's wedding.

He Yushui was also full of expectations. She thought it shouldn't be too bad.

But the reality was not very satisfactory, or it was not quite what He Yushui and her sisters wanted.

Wu Junnan brought a few people to pick up the bride on bicycles, which is the best way for ordinary people to pick up the bride.

Yu Haitang and the others, however, curled their lips, expressing their dismay at the simplistic nature of the scene. There weren't enough of them, and it wasn't very lively.

The same thing happened at the banquet. Not many people came, and there weren't many tables of food.

It was very different from the lively wedding they had imagined, and they all looked worried about whether He Yushui would have a hard life after getting married.

Seeing her happy face, they put the issue aside. After all, it wasn't their wedding, and her father didn't worry about it, so there was no need for them to meddle in other people's affairs.

While He Yushui was getting married, Master Zhang also arrived in the courtyard.

This Master Zhang, whose Taoist name is Zhang Xuanyi, is not a real master, but a liar. However, he is familiar with several Taoist scriptures and knows some Feng Shui.

On a daily basis, he uses this skill to fool people and earn some money.

This is his last vote before he retires.

“Hopefully I can get something big.”

As soon as he entered the door, Master Zhang was stopped by someone.

"Comrade, what are you doing here?"

Because of what happened to Sha Zhu's family, Siheyuan is very wary of strangers.

"Hello, comrade. I'm here to see He Daqing."

After hearing this, Aunt Yang took Master Zhang to the central courtyard.

When He Daqing saw someone coming, he hurried to greet him.

"Brother Zhang, you are here. Aunt Yang thanks you. This is a relative of ours."

Aunt Yang was relieved then, and after saying a few words, she returned to the front yard.

After closing the door, Master Zhang said sternly, "Master He, there's something wrong with your house."

"Not right? What's wrong?"

"This house is too gloomy. Has your family been having trouble these past two years?"

Although it was a question, Master Zhang's tone was extremely firm.

He Daqing couldn't help but nod, "Master is truly a god. Our family has encountered so many terrible things in the past two years."

"This master has already calculated that your family is truly unlucky, with your wife and children separated and suffering from bloody disasters."

Master Zhang sighed, as if everything was under his control.

However, He Daqing and Sha Zhu were shocked. This master was really capable. He even knew this.

Anyone around the courtyard would know about this. It was just that He Daqing and Sha Zhu had preconceived notions and didn't think much of it.

So He Daqing recounted what had happened in the past two years and asked Sha Zhu to show Master Zhang the cross scar on his body.

Master Zhang remained calm. He had known about this for a long time and naturally would not have any big reaction.

"Let's not talk about that for now. Didn't you ask me to come here to see your daughter? Bring her over here so I can take a look at her first."

Master Zhang drank tea and waited for He Daqing's action.

"Master, my daughter..."

"So she's not home?"

He Daqing said, "That's right, Master, can you see it this way?"

Master Zhang thought to himself, "Shh, I've never been so deceitful before. But it doesn't matter. He's not here, so it's just right. Whatever I say is true."

"Ahem, it's not impossible. How about this, take me to her room first."

"Master, please come this way."

Master Zhang walked into the room and pretended to walk around a few times, while he was making hand gestures and chanting spells.

Then his expression suddenly changed and he pointed out the window.

"I saw it, I saw it. There are several wronged spirits causing trouble there. It is they who are causing your family unrest and the rift between father and daughter."

He Daqing and Sha Zhu looked in the direction of the master's finger and were immediately shocked.

That direction was exactly the Jia family.

All of a sudden, He Daqing and Sha Zhu's trust in the master reached a new level.

The only family in this courtyard that has a blood feud with them is the Jia family.

"There are five wronged spirits haunting your family there, three large and two small. It is their presence that has ruined your family's fortune and brought upon you this terrible misfortune."

Master Zhang spoke in a serious tone, and Sha Zhu nodded repeatedly.

"This damned Jia Zhang family is restless even after death, always thinking of causing trouble. They really should never be reborn!"

He Daqing gritted his teeth and said, "Master, tell me, how much would you charge to get rid of them? It would be best if they could never be reborn!"

"Alas, we don't talk about money, we talk about yuan!"

"Yes, yes, yes. Then, Master, how much does it cost?"

Master Zhang hesitated for a moment. "Well, five people, just give me 88 yuan, and I'll make sure they disappear."

"Okay, I'll get the money for you right away."

He Daqing's generosity made Master Zhang regret it. It was too little.

After receiving the money, Master Zhang began to perform the ritual. He took out some magical instruments, talismans, and a few scarecrows.

Then, after a series of confusing and incomprehensible actions, several scarecrows suddenly combusted without any fire.

After the scarecrow was burned to ashes, Master Zhang took out a small coffin the size of a palm and put the ashes in it.

Seven more small coffin nails were driven in, and this was the proper conclusion.

Chapter 683 He Daqing's Immediate Emotion

After the ceremony, He Daqing saw Master Zhang out.

When they reached the entrance of the alley, he pulled Master Zhang aside and asked, "Master, do you know how to read faces?"

Zhang Xuanyi was secretly delighted, knowing that this might be a way to make some money. He said in a deep voice, "Of course I will. I am best at observing whether someone can have children by looking at their face.

Are you going to show it to your son? No need to ask, he is destined to have only one son and one daughter, and both are destined to die young."

He Daqing felt a chill in his heart when he heard this. He still hoped that Fugui and Xiu could be alive.

"No, Master, how many sons do you think I can have?"

"you?"

Zhang Xuanyi straightened He Daqing's face and looked him up and down for a long time.

Then he shook his head, as if regretting something.

"Master, what's with that expression on your face? Do you think I only have one son, Sha Zhu?" He Daqing said in panic.

He had worked so hard for so long that he could barely walk, all for the sake of having a son. If he was destined to have only one son, wouldn't all his efforts have been in vain?

Wang Ying: You’re not happy, are you?

"That's not the case. Judging from your face, you should have three sons in this life, but only one will grow up. The other two haven't had their due yet. I estimate you'll have to wait five or six years."

"Five or six years!"

He Daqing lost his voice and said, "Master, how can I wait for five or six years? I'm so old now, and whether I can do it in another five or six years is still a different matter."

"But this is what your face shows. There's nothing I can do about it." Master Zhang pretended to be helpless.

"Master, is there no way to advance this time a little bit?"

"this?"

Master Zhang was in a dilemma again.

He Daqing understood immediately and handed over a few more bills.

Master Zhang touched it and nodded with satisfaction. Then he took out a piece of talisman paper and a packet of medicine from the bag he brought with him.

Then he bit his finger and drew a few times on the talisman paper.

"I've calculated that next Wednesday is a good day. That night, light the talisman paper by your bed and drink the medicine. The combination of the two will guarantee that you'll have a son."

He Daqing didn't know he was crazy, but actually believed what he said. He solemnly accepted the talisman paper and medicine, and respectfully saw the master off.

Back home, Sha Zhu asked He Daqing, "Dad, now that we've dealt with the Jia family's wronged spirits, when will the rain return to normal?"

"I don't know about that either. I guess we have to wait for two days. Didn't the master say that there are too many wronged souls and the yin energy is too strong? If we can burn down the Jia family's house, that would be the best. If not, we can only wait."

"Dad, even after the rain returns to normal, do you want her to divorce Wu Junnan? That would mean she'd be remarried, and it would be hard to get married again in the future."

He Daqing shook his head. "Forget about the divorce. As long as the rain returns to normal, it will be the same as before."

We can't really let He Yushui be labeled as a young divorcee, and divorced just a few days after marriage. That wouldn't sound good.

Those who don’t know would think that the He family is committing marriage fraud and defrauding betrothal gifts.

……

Tuesday came in a flash, and He Yuguo finally returned, and his attitude was much better.

This made He Daqing and Sha Zhu very happy, and they became more convinced of Master Zhang's words. Especially He Daqing, he seemed to have seen the birth of his son.

Little did they know that He Yushui and Wu Junnan came here today just because of the custom of returning home.

The reason why the two of them were so nice was because He Daqing didn't make trouble today and prepare a table full of new dishes.

Why not just make some home-cooked meals honestly? Why do you have to make trouble?

However, He Yushui and the others did not stay long. They sat in the courtyard for a while and then left.

In a blink of an eye, it was Wednesday night, which was the good day the master said.

He Daqing solemnly burned the talisman paper at the head of the bed, then mixed the medicine powder and swallowed it with an aphrodisiac.

After a fierce battle, He Daqing suddenly looked up, then shuddered all over, and cold sweat instantly covered his whole body.

Then his whole body seemed to be frozen and he fell down.

This sudden change scared Wang Ying.

She has only been with two men in her life, but she has never seen anything like this.

Wang Ying got off the bed and hurriedly put on his clothes. Then he tested He Daqing's breath.

This scared her again, because He Daqing had no breath, like a dead person.

"what!"

A sharp cry resounded through the sky, waking up everyone in the courtyard.

Sha Zhu was the first to arrive, and Xu Damao was the second.

"Auntie Wang, what's wrong? What happened?"

Wang Ying pointed tremblingly at He Daqing lying on the bed, "Your father is dead."

"Ah!"×2
